Big time road win in Providence tonight by X! Second place all to themselves in the Big East. Let’s get it together before tournament time.
Lol. Conference tournament, anything can happen.Quote:

St. Mary's was a mess last night.
Boheim out here getting disrespected. K and Roy "retired" but Boheim is "not returning". Dude never got the respect when he hit 1000 either.
FWIW..on sports talk radio this afternoon..
Craig Carton (SU grad) was talking on his show today about Boeheim and stories about him/one of his assistants very similar to the PSU Paterno/Sandusky disaster.
Carton and Evan were not shy in their criticism of Boeheim and that SU should of got rid of him years ago….amongst other SU communication grads like Mike Tirico, Ian Eagle, Bob Costas…
I’ll have to go back and see exactly what they are talking about, but I’m sure it’s not positive….especially when they referred to it as just like what happened at PSU.
Its a huge stretch to compare what happened at SU to Sandusky. Look up Bernie Fine. A couple of guys accused him of sexual assault. No charges were ever brought against him, locally or by the feds. Feds claimed they interviewed 130 people. Pretty much ruined his career.Quote:

Man Maquette almost got rolled today.
DePaul is on a mission. GL to X tonight.
Rooting for Providence to take out UConn (who are looking really, really good)
Ultimately, we need to clear a path for the cats to get to the dance. C'mon!!
It’s good to see Shaka Smart having success at Marquette. I thought he got a raw deal at Texas. Although, I guess you really can’t lose to Abilene Christian in the first round of the NCAA tournament and expect to keep your job at UT.
Well, the horns managed to squeak by TCU without hitting hardly any deep shots. Guess they spent all their energy in practice on defense and rebounding and not on shooting 3s.
Meanwhile, in the Kansas game, Gradey Dick was splashing everything he looked at. Doesn’t bode well for tomorrow’s matchup if you are a Texas fan, especially since the game is essentially a home game for Kansas. But I guess we’ll have to see what happens…
Watching UVM vs UMass Lowell on TV. UVM needs to get its head back in the game.
UVM got their heads back in the game. March madness here we come!
First time on over 20 years that all our immediate family college teams are OUT! So NIT FTW LOL!
Family of losers!Quote:

Yeeeehawwww Texas! Too bad for all those disappointed fans wearing blue and red in Kansas City today.
my god, i hate kyle filipowski.
X ran into a buzz saw in the finals. Still, strong showing should bode well for the tourney.
Zero legs under them having played 3 games in 3 days and the last one less than 24 hours before. And it showed.
Coach Smart has a really good team in Marquette.
Hope to see a 4 seed for X ��
Wow, I guess the run to the Big East final was enough to reward X with a 3 seed. Did not see that coming but I’ll take it!
Fuck. UVM is 15th seed and has to play Marquette. Fuck.
and UVM women are 15th seed vs. UConn in Storrs.Quote:

Fucking pathetic. We’ve got young guys with shoes to fill who missed out on tourney experience last year and would benefit from the competitive yet relatively low stakes minutes that the NIT would offer. Bad fucking look all around.Quote:

Now whatever that 3rd tier tournament is? No clue how that thing survives.
They had nice drawings/briefly started construction on new Tarrant Center…..but of course, Covid shut it all down completely….and donors have since pulled their money….it’s quite a mess….no timeline if it will ever get done.Quote:

FWIW…I think the UVM kids/teams actually have an advantage at home games lol…because the other teams come in there and see such bush league facilities…..Rumor is that UCLA soccer came in this fall/and they were laughing/making fun of the set up…and they then got their asses kicked by by the men’s soccer team……This probably happens a lot/
With all that….yes, they really should/need to get that Tarrant Center done. The students/student athletes, coaches, UVM community deserve better.
It would be nice to see it upgraded, hopefully they get it done. They're sorta regulars in the Big Dance from that conference so if any team there deserves better facilities...
IIRC they get $250-300K just for being in the bracket, and then it goes up from there.
just for eyeballs -- bracket thread up

Never a doubt! Onward, X!
Wow, Ice, GU to hire Ed Cooley away from Providence?
https://www.espn.com/mens-college-ba...ence-ed-cooley
Providence can have Neptune if they want him. We want Jay back.
Bad news bro. I have X leaving this next round ... and ... well ... I have to respect the bracket. Was a hell of a run.Quote:
